Brake pads EBC or Raybestos

I've been running EBC Redstuff for 5+ years now, and while I haven't looked at the pad clips in over a year I don't recall them being any different than OEM. Performance has been good, and they're less dusty than the original pads.

I got them replaced with the EBC YellowStuff and the brakes feel much better at the track now. They still get a bit soft once it's hot, but this may be due to the brake lines expanding?

ebc yellows are great, but you need to bed them in with a hard stop from 180 kmph, not something you want to get caught doing.

I had yellows on my MR2 and I have greens on my BRZ. Yellows are amazing pads but you feel like you’re driving a 40 year old car when they are cold. If you have to stop fast on a cold morning it takes a lot more braking effort. Greens are amazing daily pads. No compromise on low temp and I haven’t even touched their top end with spirited driving.

I have EBC yellows on my Spyder. I'm pretty happy with them for street use, good grip and only occasional squeal.

I’ve used EBC yellow stuffs on my RX8 and M3 daily’s supplemented with Brembo blanks. They work well for just putting around town and work especially well with heat in them. They do seem abrasive at speed and they do seem to wear rotors down perhaps a bit quicker, but I still could get 20k out of a set with a couple of track days.

I personally run Zimmermann rotors and EBC pads. No issues during heavy braking. Definitely buy quality rotors, cheap rotors warp pretty quickly.

I have had a set of OEM (centric i think) pads for a while, they have lasted well thru many mountain runs (no track days)....I am in need to new front rotors/pads, so upgrading to a slotted front and EBC yellows, going to leave the rears alone for now and see how it drives with the fronts upgraded

My EBC red pads do dust but no where near as bad as OEM

So I mentioned to Mike at GiroDisc (who is great btw) that I was in the market for pads, and he recommended Raybestos ST43s, which get great reviews. So I went with them, but two events ago they put deposits on the rotors so bad the car shook like mad after a few laps. I still had the HT-10s with me, so I swapped them, they wiped the deposits off and I was back in business for the day.
